Well dear the best known books for CDS and AFCAT are the following :

1)Polity-Lakshmi Kant or PM Bakshi

2)Geography-Class 9-12 NCERT is more than enough.

3)Economics-You may read NCERT for just idea,as questions are normally not asked from here and If asked are very simple Direct.

4)Science-Go for NCERT textbooks

5)Current Affairs-Read newspapers,watch news on TV,keep news updating apps.

6)Maths and English can been sudied from previous year papers.

7)Modern History-Bipin Chandra Will be sufficient

And,If you want to follow a single book you can go for Arihant Pathfinders,also,You must go through and solve previous 10 years papers.

Hope This was helpful to you!

All the three exams are conducted on the same day.

You have to prepare three subjects i.e. English, General Knowledge and Mathematics.

There are 120 questions of English, 120 questions of G.K. and 100 questions of Mathematics.

If your service choice is OTA then you don’t have to give the Mathematics exams.

The Strategy during the exam:

English is the most scoring subject. Avoid all the error finding questions because they are biggest contributor to negative marking.

English exam is easy in comparison to GK and Mathematics.

For IMA you need around 120 marks.

hello,

In defence examinations reservations are not considered.The official cut off is not yet out but the expected cut off is as follows for each academy

• AFA:132-135
• IMA:114-116
• INA:103-105
• OTA(men):84-86
• OTA(women); 83-83

So there are less chances to qualify.However, cut off is subjected to change it may increase or decrease slightly.

Hello Chandan,

You can apply for CDS if you have completed your graduation.

The university from which you hold a degree must be a recognised University then you are eligible to appear for CDS.

If your university is a UGC-recognised one, then you are definitely eligible for the CDS exam.

Good luck,

Hope it helps :)

Hi Karuna,

Although you have Spectacles, but that will never affect your eligibility towards any exams. So no need to panic about anything and -2.5 is just a mere number, because I too have same problem of Myopia. You can apply any exams you want. Feel free and don't worry.

Thank you. All the best.
